efemeridno vreme

Determined in principle from the sun's apparent annual motion, ET is the numerical measure of uniform time, which is the independent variable in the gravitational theory of the earth's orbital motion, coming from Simon Newcomb's Tables of the Sun. In practice, ET was obtained by comparing observing positions of the Moon with gravitational ephemerides calculated from theories. In 1992, standard (apparent geocentric) ephemerides of comets and minor planets changed from using Ephemeris Time to Terrestrial Dynamical Time (TDT, or TT).
